A bunch of Clowns are putting up a show of Hamlet - they sometimes misinterpret the text, sometimes find new meanings in it, sometimes try and understand it, very often make a mess of it.They chose to use some phrases from the play and mixed it with Gibberish. They even edited the text, threw out some important scenes, and made a mess of the order of things as if the pages got mixed up. But through all this, they were simply looking for the essence of Hamlet, and trying to find a context in our own times.

Cinematograph :
the group - is a kind of a hangover from Chingari in Delhi. Rajat, Atul and Sheeba were all part of Chingari. C for Clown was the first play under this banner - and we have just opened our second play - Hamlet, The Clown Prince.
